On a scale of 1 to 10 , we would rate it a 9.8. It was indeed a great experience to attend John Amatt 's talk . How his own experience as an adventurer and climber can be applied to the present turbulent business environment was of great value and he is a very gifted storyteller. We strongly recommend him as a keynote speaker."

"After attending the John Amatt's presentation to the Cairo chapter of YPO ... I appreciate how one has to make decisions under a sharp edge and ultimately realize that team work is how it all works out. John's talk is narrated with the same enthusiasm as if it were only yesterday that he mounted Everest and his wisdom in using metaphor to relate his experience to business and all situations of life is just fantastic."
